The Hotel Bellevue des Alpes, in Switzerland’s Bernese Oberland region. At 6,700 feet, it sits above the Kleine Scheidegg train station at the foot of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains.
At Les Cornettes, a roadside hotel in the micro-village of La Chapelle-d’Abondance, in the French Alps, you’ll find homemade charcuterie, a baked potato, pickled mushrooms, and a handful of lettuce leaves, perhaps to ease digestion of the accompanying Berthoud, a mini-fondue made with the local Abondance cheese.
Gampe Thaya, an on-piste alpine lodge just above Sölden, in Austria—a great place to enjoy one of the Austrian Alps’ most famous desserts: Kaiserschmarrn.
With the Alps’ Mont Blanc as a backdrop, freshly baked rye bread cools on wooden racks at the Auberge de la Maison, located in Aosta’s micro-village of Entrèves, Italy. The hotel and restaurant are a favorite alpine spot—authentic, singular, and family-run over several generations.
Cervinia’s Plan Maison ski station, in Italy’s Valle d’Aosta region.
A horse-drawn carriage with pull-ropes transports skiers to the Armentarola ski lift at Alta Badia, in Italy’s Dolomites.
The Hotel Bellevue, near the town center of Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy.
